The Balvenie Tun 1509 | Batch #1 | Single Malt Scotch Whisky

Balvenie Tun 1509 Batch #1 was made by marrying together 42 of the finest casks — 35 traditional American Oak barrels and seven European oak sherry butts — from Balvenie’s aging stock. Each of the casks was hand-selected by David Stewart, who has served as Balvenie's Malt Master for the past five decades. “I’ve carefully considered each of the 42 whiskies in turn and they all bring something different to the table. Once the whisky was blended together, Stewart rested it for several months in Tun 1509 — one the distillery's unique marrying vessels — to create a single malt that was greater than the sum of its already precious parts.
